*sob sobzzz*


She felt the rain trickle slowly down her face, mixing with her tears. But she felt nothing else. Nothing at all. She didn't care what people were thinking. She didn't care who was staring as she stood in the pouring rain. All she cared about was that the love of her life had been snatched away in a moment. Her beloved. The only one she had ever loved.

Her eyes, red with crying, stood stood out starkly against the deathly pallor of her finely chiseled features. Not a sound escaped her lips, but her heart was screaming in distress. The same question haunted her thoughts, over and over again. "Why, God? Why him? Why, out of all the people in the world, did You have to take HIM from me?". She was angry. Angry with fate. Angry with God. And angry with herself.

Less than an hour had passed since that dreadful phone call reporting that horrible accident, but the pain made it seem like forever. The aching pain in the pit of her stomach. The pain that worsened with every passing second. The pain that first set in when she realized he was gone,
forever. Never again will she feel his caressing touch, his warm loving kisses. Never again could she run to him in times of trouble to hear his assurance that everything will be alright. Never again will she see that boyish grin she loved. Never again could she love another. Never again, never again.

The cold wind whipped around her mercilessly as the rain continued drenching her from top to bottom. The freezing water collected in puddles that licked around her bare ankles. But the cold hand that gripped her on the inside was far worse than the chill on the outside. The cold grip that could never be warmed. But only the cold could numb the wrenching pain deep in her heart. Slowly she turned and headed for home. But where was home without the welcoming arms of the man she loved?
